How it works
Establish Outposts, earn resources, spend them to take the next objective. Large spaces and vehicles. The map is too big to cover on foot alone.
What to prioritise
Combat Outpost is a chain of objectives rather than a single point. A capture that does not feed the next one is worth nothing, so read the chain before you commit.
How to set up for it
The Combat Outpost is a ground war format, which means large spaces and vehicles. Choose the class that answers the objective rather than the one with the longest range.
What is not published yet
Activision has published the mode list and the format each mode belongs to. Scoring values, spawn rules, playlist sizes and the maps each mode runs on are not published and change with playlists, so check them in the live game.
